New Offside and Nearside required.
I have spoken to Renault and you can only purchase the offside now.

Many thanks Ian

if you mean the ones at either end of the rear beam where it mounts to the chassis, I recently got some for my missus RT, mounts and all, had to be shipped in from reno dieppe, not cheap at all!!

Hi Budji

Thanks for the information. Did you purchase these through Renault as they have advised me that the Near side is now no longer available.

yeah I did mate, only a few months ago too, thing is I couldnt get the bushes themselves anywhere, had to buy the mount to chassis including the bush, even with my 15% discount at reno still cost something stoopid like £160 per side :shock: :shock:

wasnt a good month really!!

i am pretty sure rt rear beam is of the closed type where
as 16v and williams have open type bars and obviously bushes
differ .
did the bush kit look like this for the rt by any chance mate ??

Mine is completely different, On my 16V the bush inside the mount in made of rubber.
